    hello, i recently got my old NES working,
    I had it tuned in on my Flatscreen tv, and it looked grand, then the next day, it only showed up in Black and white and unclear.

    Does anyone know what the problem could be? as its in Perfect working order. Is there a Set frequency to Tune this in on? would there be an "AV" channel for it??
    really bothering me now, wonder if anyone could shed some light on this for Me :)
    Kind Regards :pac:

    Buy a composite AV cable for it and it will appear under one of your AV channels. No need to be using an RF cable in this day and age, they're horrible! :D

    Im looking on Deal Extreme for this cable, cant seem to find it though.
    It needs an RF and to go into the NES, and does it need HDMI or R,Y,W ends for tv?
    just a bit confused on what exactly to get, a link or pic of it would be awesome, as i am quite slow lol

    It's just one of these, you can get them anywhere. One end into the NES, the other into your tv either directly or by a scart adaptor...depends on your tv connections

    Both. There should be AV connectors at the side of the NES towards the rear. Video is Yellow, Mono sound is White
